Jim was prompt, knowledgeable, and communicative, figured out a creative way to get circuit in without re-trenching a line from the house, and took care of all contacts with consumers energy, city permits, and inspection. First class work, neat and professional. Because of Consumers delay it took a few weeks longer than expected but Jim kept us informed and near the top of his job queue. Super job.
Description of Work: Wired detached garage for an electric car, required installing a new 100 amp service from an electric pole, circuit breaker panel with two 50 amp and a 15 amp circuit (to replace existing 15 amp circuit from house panel), and a 50 amp line (in conduit) to vehicle charger. Cost included everything but charger, which I had bought separately.

Jim arrived promptly, investigated my concerns of a noise and buzzing related to my refrigerator outlet, inspected and replaced 2 outlets. This was all done efficiently. He was very professional, thorough and informative. I will contact him in the future should I need further assistance.

It was already past normal working hours when I called. James Sieklucki of Beacon nonetheless was at my home within an hour and had the problem fixed within the next hour. He was polite, easy to talk with, and in all ways thoroughly professional.

Jim was prompt to return my call and scheduled an estimate (free!) very quickly. He was very professional, friendly, and helpful. Ended up diagnosing a problem my husband could fix for himself and charged us nothing. Amazing service - felt like the way people used to do busines when building relationships was more important than making a buck. We will absolutely call him the next time we need an electrician.

This was our second time using Jim's services (within about a month's span) and we continued to be impressed. We had no idea that our brand new stove needed a different kind of outlet than we had available from the old appliance, so we called Jim for help and to our surprise he was available the very next morning to come and save the day. Our new stove is now working beautifully and it was all thanks to Jim's fast and professional help. Pricing was fair as always!

Jim did an awesome job! We have formica as a backsplash and we were worried that it would split/chip when cut into but there were no issues and everything looks great. He was on time, got the work done quickly, and was pleasant to work with. Prices were fair and out of all the quotes we got, he was the only one who actually gave us what we wanted without trying to upsell. We will definitely be hiring Jim again for future needs!

Jim is not only a friend of mine, but a real pro at electrical work! I most assuredly recommend him. He has done work for us before. If you want a real pro and a really nice contractor as well, I can't recommend Jim highly enough! He had my problem fixed within only a few minutes. He explained what I was doing wrong and corrected it for me.

Jim was amazing! He was a great communicator and returned my phone calls promptly when he said he would. He came out to our property and gave us a free estimate, and offered some suggestions for additional updating, if we wanted to do that work as well, but wasn't at all pushy about it. On the day of service, Jim called 10 minute prior to arrival, as I requested, and was there on time! He showed up with his employees and promptly got to work. Jim was respectful to our home, and belongings. His professionalism has blown me away, and we will certainly be using him again in the future!!

We were very happy with Jim and Beacon Electric. We finished our basement and had them do all the wiring and lighting. We had an idea of what we wanted, but Jim provided some great suggestions that we hadn't thought of on our own. We made a couple changes along the way and he was always easy to work with and happy to accommodate the changes. They showed up when scheduled on always left the area clean when done. I will definitely call them again for future electric work.

He did a good job, was fast, and on time, but there was a few other things that I wanted from him but he's not responsive. I probably wouldn't use him again. I would give him a "B" because responsiveness is slow, but his price is good. I have to give him a "B" on quality because he did not label the fuse box that he installed. When he does schedule a time, he's pretty good on punctuality.

Jim came over, inspected the job I needed done, gave me a verbal estimate and told me when he could do the job which was about two weeks out. He told me he'd bring the needed parts. Jim was true to his word. He started my project when he said he would and worked with my work schedule. He finished the job in a timely manner and I am very pleased with the quality of work and his professionalism. His prices are very reasonable and his original estimate was accurate. I would not only call on Jim again, I now consider him my exclusive "gp-to" electrician. I recommend him without any hesitation.

Beacon Electric raises the bar for all Tradesmen! Our 1949 home only had 100 Amp service and a few minor upgrades from previous owners. When Jim came over to give me an estimate for interior upgrades, he identified a large issue the house inspector failed to notice (exterior electrical wires running directly over the roof of my house, which was out of code). I was very impressed with his knowledge and attention to detail. When Jim & his technician Tom came out, they did a fantastic job and cleaned up everything when they finished. They were very professional, nice and also very accommodating with my schedule. I couldn?t have chosen a better company! Jim followed up with a phone call after to make sure everything worked as planned. I highly recommend Beacon Electric to every individual or business owner who wants the highest quality work performed by a first-rate electric company. A++ rating all the way!!! THANK YOU BEACON ELECTRIC!!!
Description of Work: 1949 home: Installed & redirected exterior electrical wiring from across the roof to side of the house, new upgraded service box, new outlets, removed 100 Amp service, installed 200 Amp service, new breaker box, replaced 2 prong w/ 3 prong outlets where possible, added additional outlets, replaced old lighting with LED, installed glass covers over light bulbs in closets, installed exterior lighting, installed under cupboard LED kitchen lighting, installed electric baseboard heaters in basement, installed LED lighting in ceiling basement, installed service for electric dryer, updated and installed new outlets in garage.

Beacon tried to repair an outside light that did not work. He could not diagnose the problem and told me a wire in the attic had to be replaced. He would call me when he could schedule a time to replace the wire. He never called back. I contacted another electrician through Angie's list who diagnosed and fixed the problem in 20 minutes, Not competant
